I bought the Dream PT Cruiser for under 20k. Love it. small - fits nice in garage. Heavy - more safe. Low to ground - safer but can hit curbs. I have larger tires which help. It has a poor turning radious and gets poor gas mileage with 2.4l tubo. Overall, It is a nice riding vehicle with plenty of power plus my wife likes it because it is small and can haul a lot. It all depends on what you want. Cars are fun.
the neon was a pice of shit the head blew in it and my buddys and another gie had the same problem thats why you don't see them much on the road but dose the pt cruser have the same motar problen with the head gasket going on it
I don't think so, but the 2006 pt's I think have the back side window problem....it can be sucked out while driving 60+ because it doesn't have brackets holding that little window in place, just tape
I had a 95 Neon, and have a 03 PT. For those of you who dont know... These 2 cars are built by Chrysler. They share the same floor pan, base engine and interior parts. History as it progressed: Dodge Colt Plymouth Sundance Plymouth Summit Plymouth Neon Dodge Caliber Pt Cruiser
2nd gen Plymouth neon, dodge neon Chrysler PT cruiser(origonaly intended to be a plyouth in place of neon but turnd into chrysler when Dimler killed off plymouth)
PT Cruiser is a neon in every sense of the word. Bodywork doesn't make a car, but apparently it'll make the public pay 30 grand for a neon when they could buy a WRX.
YES IT IS. Yet people pay 30 grand for what is essentially a neon. The PT cruiser is a neon, i've been saying this, along with countless other people who know cars and the verdict is that the PT cruiser is a neon with a new shell. It's a bust, a crap car, and a sham. The WRX kills cars.
I agree mainly with what your saying, but the Pt Cruiser is not on a neon frame. They originally were thinking of that but they couldn't get it to work right so they had to build a new frame for it, making it its own car. they did borrow some ideas from the neon though.
Uh wow your the only one who actually knows that they're talking about. The PT Cruiser has a frame that is completely unique. no other car has that same frame. But people who hate the PT Cruiser just drive it. I think that they're ugly but I rented one and drove it 1000 miles. I loved how it handles. Its fun to drive. doesn't have a lot of power but its adequate. I seriously fell in love with that car. but back to the frame look it up on wikipedia it DOES NOT share the neons frame
our pt was a rental so we got it new n cheap, 15 thou
luv my pt dont want any other "sedan" no space in sedans, my hubs is 6 ft had no luck squeezin in any sedans or space in backseats for adults, we didnt want a mini van so this was an easy "compromise" u sit higher than a sedan. 2 doors are shitty cars. YA looks so cool in your stuck 2 dr sedan,LMAO!!!
the look is nostalgic love it!
u can remove the seats like a minivan even has a outlet and table in the back "picnic car" :)
@PIchillin456. how could you like a car that ugly...? so fkin hideous. just like the HHR. the designer has a big boner for hippos and it shows in his horrible horrible vehicles
@julingy Yeah they're fucking gross looking on the outside but they're actually good cars. My friend picked up a 2002 base model. With a 5-speed manual they're not slow. I raped a 2008 Mazda Miata MX-5 in the street in that car. I just watched the car get smaller and smaller in the rear-view mirror. They don't look like it but they can handle too.
@PIchillin456 yes it does, as does it also share the neons drivetrain, ex; engine, trans, ect, im not sure if your talking about the newer ones, but the 01-03's share the neons frame
@damiandick No they don't. The chassis that the PT Cruiser is on the the platform called the PT platform since they were built. They were going to put it on the Neon chassis but due to the neons dimensions they could not get it to work with the design of the body. They do share the same motor and the same automatic transmission but the manuals are different. the motor is the only thing they share.
@damiandick also the base motor in the PT Cruiser was a naturally aspired version of the 2.4L 4-cylinder turbo found in the GT and the Neon SRT-4 while the Neon's base motor used a completely different 2.0L 4-cylinder. You don't know what the hell you're talking about.
@PIchillin456 I myself may not know what i'm talking about, but the five or so mechanics that have worked on cars for 20+ years that have told me this probably do. My father owns a, 01 pt, and he gets it fixed by these mechanics, so unless your a certified mechanic, the pt's share a neon frame.
@damiandick Funny you should mention that. I'm not a mechanic but I'm one better. I'm a certified Automotive Technician at Rosenthal Chrysler in Arlington, Virginia. I think I know what the fuck I'm talking about. I work on them on a daily basis. Your mechanic friends don't know that the hell they're talking about either. It's a common misconception that for some reason they ignorantly think is true.
@PIchillin456 ok, you tell them to there face's that they don't know what their talking about, and they will show you their certificates in automotive mechanics as well, so its like 5 against one here.
@damiandick If I had an ability to then I gladly would tell it to their faces. Look man you've lost this argument. The fact that you're questioning a Certified Automotive Technician (which by the way is far more advanced career than being a mechanic) who works at a Chrysler dealership is really sad. And just to add another point to my argument the wheel-bases of the two chassis are different which is a big sign that they're not on the same chassis. Argue if you want but you're flat our wrong.
@damiandick I have a swimming certificate in England but my mate is a navy diver and i will try to tell him that he does not do it right............. Fuck off you little dick.
@PIchillin456 Same here I did not like the pt but it was a end lease car and got a great price. 9k for a 07 in 08. and I love the car and I get the same shit about the uni-body being the same as a neon. and its not. it fall in a ulity body with the floor is set up being flat. And they do handle good too.
way to lead the parade of ignorance. The PT Cruiser was built on the old neon frame, using many of the same parts and specs from the old neon design. They are essentially the same car, except the PT Cruiser has a stupid looking new shell.
"what? my 1 spelling error compaired to your 1,000,000th."
Let's see the errors here. You spelled compared wrong. You didn't put capital letters. Bad grammar. Instead of compared to your, it's supposed to be compared to YOURS.
Seems like you're the uneducated fucker here.
"you even said when you insult, you are showing that your losing."
And why is that?
By the way, aren't you gonna defend yourself on the Saturn Aura XR video? Dakota crash test? Explding PT Cruiser? I'm waiting!!!
